Storm coming--move pork shoulder inside?

[AppleMan]

We are in a drought, and I just put a shoulder on an hour ago for pulled pork. Now it looks like a storm just blew up to the North and might be here in an hour. That'd give me at least 2 hours of good smoke on the pulled pork. I've got nothing covering my BGE and I'd hate to have it drown by the potential downpour. This isn't a sprinkle but a pretty decent storm. Would moving it into the oven work? Never done that before and never wanted to...but I might be in a bind here. Any help is much obliged.

Ive cook in some heavy storms. The only issue ove ever had was a particular storm with 80+ mph winds. It ripped a cheap tent in half and turned the cookers upside-down. I was cooking on the offset...the only thing still standing.

Bring it in and finish it in the oven!

Done the same Steve but only when I have too.

Yes it will work. Wait as long as you can before moving it.

Thanks Ninja, Norm and Bigdawg! I'll bring it in last minute. That looks like one helluva storm Ninja!!

Your cooker will probably be fine in the storm--I have used a WSM in pretty bad storms.

That said--why risk yourself and make yourself miserable. Move indoors when you need to. Put a pan of water below the shoulder in the oven, though
